"Mom, actually I've been worried this whole time. It's just that seeing you and Dad not getting along so well lately makes me even more worried." 。
Qiao Zi Xuan didn't want to say it, afraid that his mother would worry.
。But he didn't know how to answer his mother without saying it out loud. The
important thing was that he wouldn't lie to his mother. 。"Well 。After a long silence, her heart aching for so long, Qin Jingwen finally responded with a soft "hmm." 。"Son, if Mommy and Daddy really split up, would you only be sad if Mommy took you guys?"Qin Jingwen didn't deny this time. She didn't deceive her child with lies. 。
。"Mom, it's not that I don't feel sad, it's just that I've lessened the sadness. " 。Actually, we don't want to leave Dad either. It's just... it's just... it's just following Dad... I... am afraid. 。Joe Hsueh hesitated, stammered and stuttered before finally voicing his true feelings. 。He is still afraid to this day. 。Afraid of Mom and Dad separating, and then there's a woman like Song Yiren around Dad. 。"No, Dad wouldn't do that." 。Dad loves you both very much and will never let anything hurt you. 。"Rest assured, no matter what happens between your father and mother, and no matter where your mother goes, she will never abandon you." 。Qin Jingwen's eyes turned red, she held both children in her arms. 。She felt guilty about the two children but was powerless to help. 。Whether Qiao Shunchen and she can be together, and whether they can give a child a complete home is not a decision she alone can make. 。Even if she couldn't decide on anything, even if she tried her hardest to endure, she couldn't guarantee that she could give the child a complete home. 。"Mom, are you and Dad really going to separate this time?" Half Moon asked cautiously, because she couldn't accept such a reality, her voice trembling slightly. 。"Well... maybe." 。Qin Jingwen did not deny it, but she also did not give a positive answer. 。I don't dare to hurt the children's hearts, nor do I want to give them hope and just leave them like this. 。“But Mommy, I don’t want you and Daddy to split up, I…” “Half a month...” 。Half a tear hung in her reddened eyes, just as she was about to let it fall when Qiao Zixuan called out to her. 。"For half a month, you don't have to worry about anything. Your brother will take care of you for life." 。Let them decide their own matters, we can't interfere. 。" Qiao Zi'xuan comforted his sister while lecturing her. " 。This time, he won't be using whining to manipulate his parents. Even if Ban Yue opposes him, he will persuade her. 。After so long, both Dad and Mom have been getting along for so long. If Dad and Mom still can't live together, then he and his sister will have to let go and not make Dad and Mom force it anymore. 。This time Qiao Zixuan figured it out, he and his sister couldn't let their own actions affect their parents' happiness. 。<<>>。But brother, I can't bear to part with Dad. I need Dad. 。" I'm a little girl, I'm still a child, I need my father's protection and my mother's guardianship. " 。I can't live without either of them. 。“ She burst into tears again, even though it had been half a month. She couldn't let go, she didn't want to be without her father, and she couldn't be as calm as her brother. " 。Her feelings towards her brother were different. Having grown up without a father, paternal love had become something she craved but couldn't reach, a luxury beyond her grasp. 。Her longing for paternal love was no less than the trauma her brother suffered from being abused by his stepmother. 。So she wanted her mother, and she also wanted her father. 。I don't want to feel that kind of longing anymore, I don't want to be without a flawless support system. 。You have a brother, your brother can be by your side forever, and protect you forever. 。As long as your brother is around, don't worry about anything. 。"Whether I'm with Mom or Dad, I'm sure we can eat well, stay warm, and grow up healthy. That's enough." 。Although you might feel wronged or lonely, these brothers make up for it. Brothers can be both dad and mom. 。Joe Hsu felt sorry for his sister, and also for himself. 。At this point, all he could do was try to persuade his sister to give up her current idea. 。Like his sister, he is also a child who needs the protection of his parents and a foolproof home. 。But their situation is laid bare here. Happiness isn't something you can just get, nor can you hold onto it by crying and feeling sorry for yourself. 。Joe Hsu's persuasion did not reassure Ban Yue, but instead made her cry even harder. 。And the heartbroken scene of the three, mother and son, was clearly seen by Qiao Shunchen who had returned. 。He stood at the door, in a place where he wouldn't be seen, and listened quietly. 。Clear to see, and painful to hear. 。Every word spoken by Xuxu and Ban Yue felt like a knife, tearing at his heart and piercing his lungs. 。His eyes were red-rimmed with pain, his pain was so intense he couldn't breathe. 。Never have I felt such pain as I do now. Even if I apologized for three days and three nights, it wouldn't make up for the guilt I feel towards my child. 。Since he learned the true identity of Qin Jingwen and her sinister motives, Qiao Shunchen knew that there was no future for him and Qin Jingwen. 。They aren't your enemies who will live and die battling each other, such an ending is cruel for the child. 。Their parents killed each other, they were destined to be victims, but did the children have to pay the price for this? Was this really what Qiao Shunchen wanted?Qiao Shunchen didn't disturb such a heartbreaking scene and turned around to leave alone.
。The three family members in the living room didn't notice Qiao Shunchen coming back, nor did they know he had left. 。After Qin Jingwen soothed the emotions of the two children, she continued to play with them. 。She returned to her room only after the two children had gone back to their rooms to rest. 。Standing at the threshold of the bedroom, looking at this place that once resonated with laughter and intimacy, Qin Jingwen felt a myriad of emotions. But more than anything, there was disappointment and desolation. 。To her, everything wasn't officially over yet, but they were already walking on the edge of separation. 。She didn't know what was wrong with Qiao Shunchen, nor did she know how their relationship had become so strained. But she knew very clearly that no matter whether they were in love or not, she and Qiao Shunchen were two people who weren't suited to be together. 。 "Sigh…" Qin Jingwen sighed and came to the bedside, picked up a phone that had been placed on the bed, and before she even unlocked it, saw a message from Li Mo's confidence 。The information displayed was a picture, so Qin Jingwen unlocked and opened the picture. 。"Here we go again... Hmph... I have no power to hurt you. Is it even worth your effort to waste time on me?" 。Qin Jingwen looked at the picture of Qiao Shunchen and Li Mo having dinner together, and she clearly felt a sense of happiness that came from being well-suited for each other. 。However, her self-deprecating remark, whether directed at Li Mo or herself, was unknown. 。Before they registered their marriage, Joe Shunchen was still her man. 。Marriage should be a bond that ties two people together, but Qiao Shunchen seems to have let go of that. 。Then Qin Jingwen didn't understand why Qiao Shunchen wanted to get married. Wasn't it more convenient not to? 。Is he just trying to prove himself this way, or is he deliberately humiliating Qin Jingwen? 。But what did she do wrong, why should she be humiliated? 。This time, Qin Jing was as gentle as last time, and did not reply to Li Mo. 。But she'll let Joe know just like last time. 。It was late already. Qin Jingwen leaned against the headboard, reading a book. 。Although I can't focus, it's better than just sitting there and daydreaming. 。"How did you get back today?" Jo Shunchen pushed open the door and saw Qin Jingwen. Knowing it well, he asked pretending not to know. 。Qin Jingwen was speechless when faced with such a question. 。Does Qiao Shunchen mean she shouldn't be here? Qin Jingwen smiled wryly and then answered 。"You'd think this wasn't my home, the way you're talking." 。"Come back and have a look at the children, if I'm bothering you, I'll move out tomorrow." 。"Since we're going to split up sooner or later, I've already talked to the kids about it today, Qin Jingwen doesn't mind saying this kind of thing. 。Qin Jingwen's single sentence left Qiao Shunchen speechless. They were still legally married, and this was Qin Jingwen's home. 。And she moved away, how can he still torment her? 。Joe Shun-chen didn't speak, instead he went to the cloakroom to change his clothes and then went to take a shower. 。After half an hour, Qiao Shunchen came out, and Qin Jingwen also waited for half an hour. 。 This is what Li Mo sent me 。"Qin Jingwen said as she showed Qiao Shunchen the pictures that she had already prepared. " 。Tell Li Mo that from now on she doesn't need to send me such pictures, and she shouldn't provoke me anymore. What she's doing is boring. 。After Qin Jingwen finished speaking, she took her phone back. 。She made sure Qiao Shunchen saw the picture, then deleted it in front of him and blocked Li Mo. 。The money, status, and position of Mrs. Qiao that Li Mo desired never belonged to Qin Jingwen in the first place. Li Mo could take them all. 。"I'm with Li Mo, and you're just so indifferent?" Qiao Shunchen didn't want to see Qin Jingwen's such calm indifference, he didn't want to see Qin Jingwen's aloofness. 。What Qin Jingwen showed was indeed silence, as if Qiao Shunchen wasn't her husband at all, as if she were watching someone else's story. 。"You didn't care about my feelings when you were with Li Mo, why should I be affected by her trivial actions?" 。"Qin Jingwen understood. Even if her heart was filled with bitterness, she would definitely keep her mouth shut." 。This time, she also needs to learn to be hypocritical, learning to appear tough on the outside while her heart remains soft. 。Be a little harder on yourself, make yourself sharper, so you won't be hurt by more people. 。Qin Jingwen's single sentence already enraged Qiao Shunchen, but he endured and didn't vent. 。"Su Qin has already returned to work at the company." 。" Joe Shunchen's cold and hard words, even if told to Qin Jingwen," 。He said that on purpose, wanting to put everything together to provoke Qin Jingwen and increase the impact so that Qin Jingwen couldn't bear it. 。"Knowing 。Qin Jingwen remained calm, her face showing no emotion. 。Let alone Sun Xu had told her a long time ago, she wouldn't even open her mouth to ask why the first time she heard it. 。Now they don't even talk much, and what's the point of avoiding these things anyway? 。 Qiao Shunchen hated seeing Qin Jingwen's calmness the most. The more indifferent she was, the more it showed her scheming, and the more it revealed how sinister she truly was. 。"What once caused a huge stir, known to everyone, is now back with a bang, and everyone in the company knows about it. How could I possibly not know?" 。Su Qin once was your loyal follower, it's only my appearance that caused a misunderstanding between you two. 。You sent her back to the company without a word. That means everything that happened before was my fault. I was wrong. It was me who was cunning and set you up. 。“
Qin Jingwen was angry about this, not because Su Qin returned to work at the company, but because Qiao Shunchen didn't even say hello before letting Su Qin take on such an important position.
